Digestive Aid & Bedtime Libations

September 11, 2017September 12, 2017 ~ Anne Schouvey ~ Leave a comment

It's been a very full & satisfying summer but on the last stretch I was actually craving home, routines and a detox. My body is very clearly signalling that enough of a good thing is enough and the plentiful food plates of French dinners I have over-indulged in are making me feel heavy and sluggish … Continue reading Digestive Aid & Bedtime Libations

Going sugar-free + my quinoa salad recipe

April 9, 2016March 20, 2017 ~ Anne Schouvey ~ 6 Comments

It's spring clean time! On Monday I start Sarah Wilson's 8-weeks "I Quit Sugar" programme. Who's in? After reading articles and glimpses of her work here and there for a few years I've finally got myself equipped with the books and going all at it. Sarah has a very practical, clear and fact-based approach which makes total sense. … Continue reading Going sugar-free + my quinoa salad recipe

Start the year with a fresh palate

January 18, 2015March 20, 2017 ~ Anne Schouvey ~ 5 Comments

I am slowly waking up from my deep winter hibernation to wish you all a happy new year. And so you'd have guessed I'm not referring to a new colour scheme for your wardrobe but mouth hygiene. Where's the glamour in that? Better health begins this January. If we want to start the year the way we mean to carry on … Continue reading Start the year with a fresh palate

Time to cleanse

September 15, 2014March 20, 2017 ~ Anne Schouvey ~ 3 Comments

I'm lucky enough to have extended my summer by a couple of sunny weeks in the South of France but I'm quite aware that after a most glorious summer, Autumn has been knocking at our door early in the UK and other parts of Europe. The change of seasons are taken very seriously in Ayurveda … Continue reading Time to cleanse

:: Svadhistana C H A K R A :: The second chakra is situated by the sacrum, lower abdomen (or inner pelvis). It is illustrated with six petals and corresponds to the element of water. It relates to the colour orange and the Sanskrit seed sound is VAM. This center expresses creativity, desires and sensuality, the power of relationships with others and oneself. It also calls to self-defense. When healthy there will be emotional maturity and a sense of being at peace and comfortable with your body and sexuality as well as inviting pleasure in your life in various fashion rather than denying yourself. You will also embrace your creative process and feel inspired pursuing your creative ideas. As with each chakra a very simple meditation to open and allow flow is simply to repeat the mantra in your mind focusing on its associated colour and the location of the chakra in the body. You could also rub your hands together and once energy is activated bring the palm of the right hand an inch or so in front of the chakra’s physical location (the inner pelvis here) and take a circular movement clockwise for a minute or two. You may feel a release or more flow. #ayurveda #yoga #chakras #dinacharya #dailyrituals #routines #healthyroutines #boundlessenergy 📸: John Price via Unsplash

☝🏻That! Ayurveda is simply a set of tools to uncover what our body already knows, it’s a lifestyle that allows the natural intelligence of the body to rise up and do its job. Where unhelpful lifestyle has dissipated the intelligence within by confusing the body, loading it with toxins and not resting it when it needs to, using products full of chemicals and eating and living disconnected from natural rhythms and seasonal cycles, basically clouding what the body knows - on the contrary Ayurveda draws from the knowledge and understanding of the natural world and our body-mind systems to re-align with the innate intelligence that can heal us and keep us well and energised far better than we’ll ever know how to on paper. 📸: @wisdomwithin_ #ayurveda #yoga #dinacharya #dailyrituals #dailyroutines #healthyroutines #joydiet #energy #energyboost #boundlessenergy #boundlessenergyecourse #doshas

:: B A S E C H A K R A :: The chakras are clusters of energy or bundles of light in the pranic body where currents of energy (nadis) meet. The word chakra stands for wheel or circle, it is a vortex as such where energy is received, stored and sent outwards. In the western model they correspond to the nerve plexuses. Muladhara chakra is the base chakra, the centre of root support, survival, tribal power. It is illustrated as having 4 petals and relates to the Earth and the colour red. The seed sound LAM is its healing mantra. From it spans self-acceptance, security, the basic needs of the body and person being met. It’s the storehouse of energy and also relates to the feminine. A healthy and open base chakra will have you rooted, grounded, feeling safe. Wear red, eat red foods, meditate on the sound LAM whilst visualising the colour red at the bottom of your spine. Make sure that your essential needs for food, drink, physical activity, sleep, time in Nature, family time and centering routines are addressed. Take it back to basics and create a supportive environment to flourish in from the ground up. #ayurveda #yoga #dinacharya #rituals #routines #chakras #root

Stirrings.

Morning loves! Did you know that colour therapy or using colours for different energies is part of the Ayurvedic system? Like the chakras are linked with different colours the Doshas also have colours that temper them and soothe, relax or uplift. Pitta types are soothed by blues and greens Vatas do well with corals, oranges, golds and coppers (and I’m not just listing my favourite colours for fun, there is truly an art to it!) Kapha could do with red and warmer tones too, bolder patterns. Here’s for my Monday morning 2-piece wisdom. And in other news I have reverted to being a (Nature) picture nerd so basically posting what the heck takes my fancy.

Between rain and gales we got a lucky break.
